TTC21B: From Modifier to Causative Gene in Joubert Syndrome
ABSTRACT Biallelic pathogenic variants in TTC21B, encoding the retrograde intraflagellar transport protein IFT139, are a known cause of renal and skeletal ciliopathies. Single heterozygous variants in this gene were found to be enriched in a cohort of patients with various ciliopathy phenotypes, including three individuals with Joubert syndrome (JS), a

Chromatin Structure and Intellectual Disability Syndromes
The molecular complex consisting of DNA and its associated proteins is referred to as chromatin. In the central nervous system (CNS), dynamic chromatin remodelling is required for cell division, specification, differentiation, maturation and to respond appropriately to environmental cues (reviewed in 1-4).
